Ok. This is now officially pissing me off. The file system on my hard drive is NTFS. I think it has something to do with the destination folder. When I try to save it into 'My Videos' in this folder- C:\Documents and Settings\Jarrod\My Documents thing program shuts completely down and disappears as it starts to save. When I just try and save it here- C:\Documents and Settings\Jarrod\My Documents, the saving stops at 30% and i get an error message telling me that it cant save and to check those three things. What is the problem???????????!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Thanks,
